A few Challenges

I loved the stripes, and those layered dots above the line art images. I knew I must have some cool Basic Grey striped paper!!!

And I did. I also knew I had some cute line art. The teeny version of the Doodle Factory Creatures - they come in two sizes and the teeny ones are quite fetching. I took the Min Positive Words and tried to find some things to give the "Don't Judge a Book by its Cover" flavor - what do you think?

Next, I did the Dirty Dozen gallery Central Theme play along. The gallery is amazing this month. Man do I love Michelle Zindorf!!

Hard to choose this month though - I love the coffee/gift theme and these girls did some amazing things with that simple idea.

So I used tea instead of coffee for my project. The cups are stamped with the retired What's Brewin' set in Rose Red and cut out. The letters and numbers are cuttlebugged out of the Hostess prints pack on Rose Red Designer paper. Then that's layered on Barely Banana, Basic Grey and then a River Rock base.

uynokHello! I've been peeking at your blog since I found your work on the starvingartistamps gallery. I love your style - it's so unique and always impeccable! I really enjoy seeing what you do with the DoodleFactory stamps, and only partially because of my obvious bias - your other cards are equally amazing.

Art Unto Others

All of my projects are posted for your instruction & enjoyment. You may recreate these projects to your heart's content and I'll be flattered. I'd love it if you give me credit. It would be cool if you didn't submit them for publication though or sell them and make a million dollars, because that's bad karma. Unless you split it with me. My photos and my words belong completely to me and can't be reused or republished, so you gotta make your own. That means you have an excuse to buy glitter. And unless noted, dearest government officials, I am not compensated in any way for the products I use or discuss.
